A Personal Appeal -"Help Sue through her most trying time"
After coming from a
baptismal party with two of her daughters, she suffered a stroke while still in
the taxi on her way home. She and her daughters didn't realize at all that it
was already the onset of a stroke. She complained of a sudden and severe
headache. She still managed to get off the taxi on arrival at her house in
Pasig and immediately lay down on the couch writhing in pain. She asked for a
cold compress and continued to shout in severe
pain. A few minutes later, she out a long spine tingling cry....for the last
time as she passed out never to open her eyes again. We rushed her to Medical
City where she had short bouts of consciousness at the hospital’s emergency
room. The attending doctors were baffled why in just a few seconds she was
already unresponsive – all her vital functions showing signs of stress. A brain
scan was immediately made which confirmed what the doctors suspected all along
- an aneurysm burst in her brain blood vessel burst and rapidly flooded her
brain with blood putting her immediately in a coma! In a comatose scale of 1 to
15 where 15 represents the most recoverable stage of a comatose state, Sue
scored a mere 3 - which means it would be futile and can even be more tragic for
the doctors to consider any other means of medical intervention. In effect, the
doctors declared her "Brain Dead" just within minutes after her
arrival at the Medical City emergency room.She continues today to survive through life support systems. In the absence of controlling commands from her brain, she continues to breathe through a ventilator. Her heartbeat and blood pressure artificially induced and manage by a combination of medicines.
We know that the doctors have done everything they could for her. In Sue’s condition, we know there is nothing more they can do. All they can do now is to maintain the life support system that is keeping her alive up to this time. They will keep her stable and breathing for as long as her family wants her to remain alive.

Untitled Jersey City Project: More Than Just A Buzz -More than Just An Action-Drama Series!
This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Untitled Jersey City Project. All opinions are 100% mine.
FX TV Networks is no doubt creating quite a buzz about the soon-to-hit air drama and action series which is yet to be titled. Yes, you read it right! It is still untitled and that’s where the entire buzz is coming from!
Called for now as "Untitled Jersey City Project”, Fox Entertainment’s FX Networks has put together eight short form episodes of the series, unfinished, untitled, and termed a ‘work in progress’ – an experimental television drama and action series. Premiered during the last Emmy Awards and directed by Daniel Minahan (who also directed the highly rated “True Blood” and “Game of Thrones”) the Untitled Jersey City Project promises to be another exciting television series everyone should look forward to watching. But, the most intriguing aspect of this experimental project is the fact that it will be the first ever series that aims to combine the real life experience and audience participation generated only by reality television shows with the excitement and mystery of a cloak and dagger drama series.
Consider for example the series location – the action revolves around the fast developing coastline of Jersey City which in real life has been attracting hordes of high end developers and foreign financiers lately. (Jersey City was a miserable place of urban decay in the 1970’s. It was shrouded with corruption and run by a local administration well known for backroom deals and cronyism.) The Untitled Jersey City Project chronicles the development of waterfront stadium along the harbor facing Manhattan and in great similarity to actual developments in the Jersey City coastline. The story centers around two young Jersey upstart architects hired by a real estate tycoon to design Waterfront Field. To give it the twists and twits of the old game, the story presents a rich and mysterious Taiwanese couple who finance the Jersey City tycoon, an undercover FBI agent acting as the tycoon’s driver, a newspaper reporter bent on discovering and exposing the tycoon’s illegal activities, corrupt union men working in cahoots with the developer, and a budding but already corrupted local politician to complete the scene. In short, this is all about a new game to gain fame and fortune using the old rules reminiscent of the old Jersey City in real life!
Preview Episode 2 of this yet to be titled television series and see for yourself what the buzz is all about. Watch it here!
Here is the most exciting part about this project! You can help name the show and possibly get acknowledged for providing the appropriate name for the series. This is your chance to have a short lived shot at fame and stardom yourself. Just hush over the Untitled Jersey City Project page and submit as many entries as you like.
Wait, there's more to this project than what everybody else know ! If you wish to try your hand at script writing and want to put your skills to a test, why don't you join in this work-in-progress drama and submit your own ideas or screenplay about where the story should go! They have developed three scenes where you can contribute your own input. Who knows this could be your own long hoped for instant road to fame and fortune!
Please watch the episode teasers and share with me your thoughts. Tell me what you honestly feel about this upcoming series.

K-12 Education in Russia and the United States - A Comparative View
In this study Russia’s 8th graders ranked #9 globally. Comparatively, American 8th graders ranked lower at #11. The 1995 statistics were even worst for the American 8th graders. In that year (1995), the Russian students ranked 14 while the American students were way below at # 40. Although there was a marked improvement by American students from 1995 to 2007, their poor performance never-the-less left them out of the top 10 and continued to raise concern among American educators especially so since the United States spends 5.7% of its GDP on education compared to only 3.8% by Russia.
